Ballast; Front Ballast - Cub Cadet Sc2450 Operator's Manual

2. Ballast

■ Front Ballast

To mount the front ballast, the optional front weight
hitch is required.
To improve stability and traction, add ballast
indicated in the table below. (Front End Weights)
Heavy pulling and rear mounted implements can
cause the front wheels to lift. To cope with this
situation, add ballast so that reliable steering control
is maintained and tip-over of the tractor is prevented.
Remove the ballast when no longer necessary.
NOTE
●For information about the optional front weight
hitch, contact your local Cub Cadet Yanmar dealer.
Front End Weights (Option)
The front end weights can be mounted to the optional
front weight hitch. For the appropriate number of
weights, see the table below as reference only.
For accurate number of front weight, contact your
